About

Calling the original version of this track “a pile of garbage” after working on it for a year, Granduciel decided to scrap it and give it a complete rework just five days before the finished record had to be turned in to the label, saying:

An Ocean in Between the Waves Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Run away, I'm a travelin' man
Been workin' every day
I watch you as you hesitate
Walkin' through the rain
I bet against the company again
They try to redefine
Everything that I know and love
I gotta know you're mine
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Feel the way that the wild wind blows through the room
Like a nail down through the heart
That just don't beat the same anymore
That might as well be gone

[Chorus]
I'm in my finest hour
Can I be more than just a fool?
It always gets so hard to see
Right before the moon

[Verse 3]
Far away, Ma, there's a black sun risin' overhead
There's a moon through the midnight rain
How can I surround myself in time and time again?
How can I be free?
Just wanna lie in the moonlight
And see the light shine in, see you in the outline
It never gets too dark to find
Anybody at any time

[Chorus]
I'm at the darkened hillside
And there's a haze right between the trees
And I can barely see you
You're like an ocean in between the waves

[Post-Chorus]
Waitin', waitin'
Stallin', stallin'
I wanna tie
All the talk
You’ve got to rise if it gets to here
Oh, see

[Outro]
I'm waitin'
You’ve got to lean up against
On my mind on this fast slide
And I can't go back again
I've got to rise if it gets to here
Hold strong, hold on
Alright
I keep waitin'
You've got to lean on my chest
Come here
'Cause I can't go back again
You’ve got to rise if it gets to here
Hold strong, let me in
Hold strong
I'm waitin'
I'm leanin' up against
One more start
Yeah, I can't go back again
You've got to rise if it gets to here
Hold strong, woo!
I'm waitin'
I'm waitin'
